Doesn't He?

Psalm 94:9 Does he who fashioned the ear not hear? Does he who formed the eye not see?
One of my favorite ways that God communicates through his Word is when he asks us questions, engaging us in thought and coming up with an answer about WHO he is.
For example, when our kids come crying to us in a store because they lost sight of us for just a few minutes and became afraid we might have left them, we might say to them, “Would Mommy leave you?” to which we expect our child to reply, “No way, I know you wouldn’t,” as we reassure them, hold them close, and comfort them in their fear.
When we feel as though God is not listening to our prayers and our cries, or we think he’s just totally unaware of our situation (because surely he would have done something by now!), we need to answer those two questions above.
Certainly, our Father who formed our bodies while we were still in mother’s womb, giving us our unique eyes and ears, hear and sees us daily in all that we do.
He’s a good Father and we must remind ourselves of that truth, even when we can’t “see” him, knowing he’s just in the next aisle, with arms wide open.
